If you live in a city, you could have many oral surgeons to choose from. DenScore will help you find the best oral surgeon so you can get the most appropriate and affordable care.
What is an oral surgeon and when should I see one?
Oral surgeons are specialists who perform surgical procedures on the head, neck and mouth region. In addition to performing complex jaw surgeries, managing facial trauma, and removing tumors, oral surgeons are best known for extracting teeth and placing dental implants. If you’re missing one or more teeth, ask your dentist if a dental implant is right for you and whether an oral surgeon should perform the procedure.
How does DenScore determine who the best oral surgeons are?
DenScore rates oral surgeons based on clinical qualifications, patient satisfaction, scheduling flexibility, and other criteria. While oral surgeons may request inclusion in our directories, they are thoroughly vetted and must meet our strict quality control standards to be listed. Some of the oral surgeons listed below may pay for a sponsored listing or agree to put a DenScore badge on their website in order to be recognized, but they are held to the same strict quality control guidelines as every other provider on this list. Whether you choose an oral surgeon from this list or not, we always recommend doing your own research beforehand. For more information, please refer to our Terms of Service.

Will dental insurance cover dental implants and other oral surgery procedures?
Some dental insurance plans cover implants, but they often have annual or lifetime maximums and typically cover only part of the cost. In some states, Medicaid may cover implants, and an increasing number of Medicare Advantage plans now include dental implant coverage. To find the best dental insurance or Medicare Advantage plan for implants in your state, use our free online dental tool today.
How can I get the most affordable dental implants?
A dental implant procedure in the United States typically costs at least $4,000, but some insurance plans may cover up to 50% of the cost. Since costs can vary widely, we recommend contacting multiple offices to compare prices. Another way to save on dental implants is by visiting a dental school. While appointments may take longer and care is provided by supervised student dentists, the cost is often significantly lower than what private practice oral surgeons or dentists charge for similar procedures.
What else do I need to know about dental implants and oral surgery?
Depending on the procedure, patients may have the option of seeing a general dentist or an oral surgeon for their treatment. While some general dentists perform minor oral surgery in their office, it’s often beneficial to see an oral surgeon for dental implant surgery because they receive advanced training and usually have more experience compared to general dentists. Also, oral surgeons offer a wider range of anesthesia options to ensure your comfort during surgery.
